Excelente hotel
Pros:

Limpo, muito confortável, café da manhã muito gostoso! Fica numa área super segura, cheia de restaurantes pela volta, pode-se caminhar à noite sem preocupação.

Cons:

É estranha a organização do quarto: o chuveiro e a pia não tem separação da cama: o máximo é uma cortina que pode ser esticada para dar privacidade no banho. Ja sabiamos que era assim pelas fotos, não foi surpresa. Mas é muito diferente.
